Domino Tile Ornaments

Posted on December 22, 2010 by BrassyDel

Sometimes I make things. Crafty things. Like these! This is a Domino Tile ornament in progress. First, I made some purty art on my computer, then printed out to the proper size on photo paper. I paint up the Domino with silver paint, add a ribbon loop, snip-snip away at the picture, and then… Voila! We have something that looks…

Photo Fun: Leopard of the North

Posted on December 17, 2010 by BrassyDel

These gorgeous Amur Leopards live at the Denver Zoo. We visited them back in May for Pixie’s first birthday. Doesn’t the one on the bottom look so cozy?

On the down side, I had…

Shoes!

Posted on December 14, 2010 by BrassyDel

Here’s a piece I’m working on for someone. It’s a shoe. Clearly. It’s also based quite directly on THIS shoe called “Naughty Monkey” and available from DSW. The original comes in a Leopard print or what looks like a zebra print, so obviously I altered that to suit my needs here. As I side note, I totally fell in love…
